@tahseen_fatima, If you click the three dots on the top-right of a visualization, and then click on Inspect: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/0/f/0ffcb595131a02377e52a0a6d44c9a421ea637cb.png) In the flyout, change `View: Data` to `View: Requests`: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/b/6/b6ac47be8c1af06b858b57e1c82c8859f71c38bf.png) You should see the query that ran for that specific visualization: ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/9/1959e75e7598e84c4e6b48c51e681630a7e668c4.png) If you run this query as a superuser, is any data returned? ---

Hi, @Larry_Gregory thank you for your reply. When I am running with the user which I have created, I am getting **No request logged** ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/d/4/d4ee0f9764249b16b07354ba47ae346f90652694.png) When running with super user getting the same as above. May be this is due to TSVB visualization. ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/elastic/original/3X/1/9/19bac5d63ce8905a2a816d2ecc6e6d59afee8bc5.png) Kindly suggest what to do!! Thanks, Tahseen ---

I had the same issue with my custom metricbeat dashboard. What I did: 1. Go to **Management** 2. Under **Security** , select **Roles** 3. Create a **New Role** (eg _\_custom\_role_) 4. Under Index **Privileges** , assign priviledge to the index you want to be accessible to your custom user(in my case, my index is metr\*) 5. Crate a **New User** 6. Give new user the role of _kibana\_dashboard\_only\_user_ and _\_custom\_role_ ---

Hi, Thanks for your reply. I solved it by creating new user and new sapces. I did the processes again with scratch and it solved my problem. Thanks, Tahseen. ---
